+Basic Syntax
+============
+
+A simple Smarty template could look like this:
+```html
+<h1>{$title|escape}</h1>
+<ul>
+ {foreach $cities as $city}
+ <li>{$city.name|escape} ({$city.population})</li>
+ {foreachelse}
+ <li>no cities found</li>
+ {/foreach}
+</ul>
+```
+
+All Smarty template tags are enclosed within delimiters. By default
+these are `{` and `}`, but they can be
+[changed](../programmers/api-variables/variable-left-delimiter.md).
+
+For the examples in this manual, we will assume that you are using the
+default delimiters. In Smarty, all content outside of delimiters is
+displayed as static content, or unchanged. When Smarty encounters
+template tags, it attempts to interpret them, and displays the
+appropriate output in their place.
+
+The basis components of the Smarty syntax are:
